The volume of a pyramid is the length of the base x the width of the base x height divided by 3. This doesn't account for any dormers. you'd have to calculate them seperately.

It depends on the shape of your hipped roof. If it just has two sloping sides and vertical ends then the roof space is a regular prism. The volume is equal to 1/2 x the width of the roof x its perpendicular height x the length of the roof.

The below assumes a single-pitch roof:
If the space is square, you have W*W*H/3. If the space is not square, you have the volume of this pyramid plus W*H*(L-W)/2 (the volume of the triangular prism in between).

W = Width
L = Length
H = Height
Volume Under the hips = W*W*H/3
Volume under remainder = (L-W)*W*H/2
This assumes that all the roof pitches are the same.

I used to measure length x width x Height and divide by 3 = sq ft. then cube it.

using intergration then to find the 2d area then multiplying by the width
